The house met our needs well. We appreciated the washer and dryer in the basement, and were able to help our son carbo load for the marathon with meals prepared in the kitchen. The host was very communicative and had good ideas about the marathon and other activities. Parking was easy—right at the front curb. We’ll definitely keep this place in mind for future St. Paul visits.

Great little place

Great little place well located within St. Paul. We stayed there a couple nights while visiting family. Way quieter and more comfortable than a hotel. Highly recommend!

We loved our week long stay! The house is in a great location, close to everything while being on a super cute and quiet street.The house is also a lot bigger than it seems from the outside, they remodeled the basement beautifully and the king mattress is beyond comfy. The owners also gave us a in depth list of recommendations geared towards our family. We also really appreciated the baby gate at the top of the stairs and high chair for our toddler. Overall loved it The only thing that came up was the dryer was not working for us, so we ended up air drying our clothes.

Great St Paul stay

The house is very nice and nicely updated. It had everything you need for a stay. The grill could be updated to propane and add some mixing bowls and baking tins. Other than that we had a fabulous time and the owners were excellent.

Great Place in a Quiet Neighborhood

We really enjoyed our stay at this rental in the MSP metro. The house is really cool, and perfectly stocked with the items we needed for the weekend. The backyard is spacious and great for our dog to get outside and enjoy the day. We appreciated the tranquility of the area and would like to stay here again. The host's communication and response to a request were top notch and prompt.

Wonderful property!!!

Such a wonderful property and owners. We stayed for 8 days/nights for personal opportunities and our sons graduation at UMn. The property was everything that was listed, and then some, and the owners were helpful and gracious. We travel with our dog, so that always complicates our trips. The owners provided us with information about restaurants and the neighborhood ahead of time, but there were doggie treats and supplies in place for us. I cannot express what a wonderful property this is. We are planning on returning soon!

Great Stay

We came back to the Twin Cities to visit family who live in Minneapolis - so typically we would stay closer to them on the southside, but this was a perfect way to explore St. Paul and to just jump on the freeway to visit our family. My husband and I shared the place with my brother, his wife and their sweet dog - it was the perfect amount of space for us and would definitely stay again. The host was super accommodating and responsive.
